Wedding Set (engagement ring, wearing, diamond, band)

[Renee22]

Are you wearing your a original wedding set or did you get lucky and get a new set?

I have a new set, including an anniversary ring. And since I don't wear silver jewelry with gold jewelry, I also have a white gold anniversary ring that I wear with my silver jewelry.

Original set, but we haven't even hit the 10 year mark yet. Besides, I think I have a pretty substantial set, so no need to upgrade just yet.

Married almost 40 years. Have upgraded 3x. The one I have now will be my last. I'm happy with it.

I got a bigger diamond in my engagement ring on our 3rd anniversary. I think it's perfect now.

Got a new set (I got remarried lately).

It's white gold with diamonds in both the band and the solitaire. And a cluster of 4 diamonds on top. So gorgeous.

I also put in a little dark gold band I had for years with them together, to make the ring look a little more larger. I love big rings, but not that big, no.

I have several wedding rings, but the one that I wear all the time is my original band, which is a band of diamonds. The diamonds are not huge, but I think the ring is perfect.

Original - coming up on 24 yrs. Though i did get a 20yr Anniversary and a new band. I jsut alternate which ones i wear.

We're married 38 years and on our 25th anniversary my DH gave me a princess cut diamond anniversary band. The following year, I gave him a band with 5 diamonds. I have to wear my pear shaped engagement ring on my right hand since it doesn't look right with the anniversary band.
I never wear my gold wedding band anymore, in fact, it's in the bank in my safe deposit box.

We couldn't afford a "wedding set" when we got married - we were poor as church-mice, and just barely managed to scrape up the cash for a couple of simple, inexpensive bands.

Ten years later, my spouse gave me what we call an anniversary band, though it's not exactly traditional. It's a yellow gold rounded band with small channel-set stones - emeralds, rubies, sapphires and diamonds - set in a pattern in the gold. I've never seen another one like it. We're approaching our 30th anniversary this summer, and that's still the only ring I wear.

And about five years ago, we found a jeweler-artist here in town who finally came up with a band that my spouse actually likes and can wear. He develops allergic reactions to a lot of metals, so we had to find something that wouldn't give him a chronic rash on his finger. The ring is about 5 mm wide, hammered-finish platinum, edged and lined with 18-kt yellow gold, very simple, very elegant, and he loves it.
